You Be The Anchor That Keeps My Feet On The Ground, I'll Be The Wings That Keeps Your Heart In The Clouds
Mayday Parade
And honestly, I have been begging for answersThat you and only you can give to meMy voice crying loudI've been crying for days nowAnd as I start to run, I stop to breathe(And I was nearly scared to death)And I was nearly scared to death(Of what you left in paragraphs)Of what you left in paragraphs(The words were nearly over us)The words were nearly over usYou stop and turn and grab your bagsAnd I'll be here by the oceanJust waiting for proof that there'sSunsets and silhouette dreamsAll my sand castles fallLike the ashes of cigarettesAnd every wave drags me to seaI could stand here for hoursJust to ask God the questionIs everyone here make-believe?With a tear in His voiceHe said, Son, that's the question.Does this deafening silence mean nothingTo no one but me?As hours move to minutesAnd minutes take longer to breakI will be desperately awaitingBut my tongue won't fall apartAnd we've been sitting here for hoursAll alone and in the darkSo let me think of how to word itIs it too soon to say 'perfect'?If I could find another thirty minutes somewhereI'm sure everything would find meAll that's left is just to singAnd I'll be here by the oceanJust waiting for proof that there'sSunsets and silhouette dreamsAll my sand castles fallLike the ashes of cigarettesAnd every wave drags me to seaI could stand here for hoursJust to ask God the questionIs everyone here make-believe?With a tear in His voiceHe said, Son, that's the question.Does this deafening silence mean nothingTo no one but me?And if you sing to me sweet until thenI may never sail Virginia againAnd as this current moves slow for meThis much you must knowWe'll meet againAnd El, I'll have you know I'm scared to deathTell me once againThat you'll love me to the deathAnd should I dieYou swear that you will come for meAs I fade away, you reach out your arms(And please don't let me go)And please don't let me go(And please don't let me go)And please don't let me goAnd I'll be here by the oceanJust waiting for proof that there'sSunsets and silhouette dreamsAll my sand castles fallLike the ashes of cigarettesAnd every wave drags me to seaI could stand here for hoursJust to ask God the questionIs everyone here make-believe?With a tear in His voiceHe said, Son, that's the question.Does this deafening silence mean nothingTo no one but me?
